Computing denumerants in numerical 3-semigroups

Abstract

As far as we know, usual computer algebra packages can not compute denumerants for almost medium (about a hundred digits) or almost medium--large (about a thousand digits) input data in a reasonably time cost on an ordinary computer. Implemented algorithms can manage numerical $n$--semigroups for small input data. Here we are interested in denumerants of numerical $3$--semigroups which have almost medium input data. A new algorithm for computing denumerants is given for this task. It can manage almost medium input data in the worst case and medium--large or even large input data in some cases.
